Gary,

I'm with you...This is most definitely a High Condition "Original Finish" 44 DA with "Very Minimal" finish loss...Not many to be found in this condition these days!! A "Very" Nice Example worth considerably more than the "Generous" Trade Offer...Ha!!~Ha!!

I also believe the finish loss the OP is referring to is that found on the Frt. Left Side of the Barrel extending up onto the Sight Blade...still in all I'd consider it to be in the 85%+ Range...possibly a bit more if observed in-hand given how difficult it is to take photos of Revolvers having a Nickel Finish!!
